When you contribute funds, you’ll be depositing money that is not presently deposited in any type of retirement account. The IRS imposes annual limits on how much you can contribute. You may want to contact a financial advisor or tax professional for further information.
Transfer money that is not currently deposited in any type of retirement account directly into our IRAs.When you rollover funds, you receive the funds through a distribution from your IRA. You then have 60 days from receipt of those funds to roll them into another IRA or qualified retirement plan to avoid tax consequences. IRA owners are limited to only one IRA-to-IRA rollover in any 12-month period. Rollovers are not counted toward your annual contribution limits. The above reflects general rollover rules. You may want to contact a financial advisor or tax professional for further information specific to your circumstances.
Move money from other retirement plans or accounts into one of our IRAs with ease.When you transfer an IRA, the funds are moved directly from one financial institution to another. The transfer check is made payable to your financial institution for your benefit. Because you don’t handle the funds directly, the transaction is not considered a distribution. There is no limit to the number of transfers you can make.

This calculator and the values shown are intended for illustrative and informational purposes only and may not apply to your individual circumstances. This calculator uses an Annual Percentage Yield (APY) that is rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one percentage point, e.g., .01%. However, actual interest earned calculations use an APY that is rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of one percentage point, e.g., .011%. As a result, the estimated interest earned value shown here may vary from the actual interest earned on your account. Calculation assumes principal and interest remain on deposit and interest rate and APY do not change.

Yes. You can have multiple IRA CD accounts as well as you can have both Traditional and Roth IRA accounts at Discover. Your Traditional IRA accounts will be grouped into and administered under a single Traditional IRA plan, and Roth IRA accounts will be grouped into and administered under a single Roth IRA plan. Additionally, if you maintain Inherited IRA accounts, they will also be in separate plans because they need to be managed separately.
Interest is compounded daily, credited to your IRA CD account monthly, and calculated on a 365-day basis. For additional detail, see Section 5 of the Deposit Account Agreement.
Yes. We recommend that all of our IRA plan holders designate at least one beneficiary by completing the IRA Designation or Change of Beneficiary form. When completing the form make sure to:
We also recommend reviewing your beneficiary information after a major life event, such as marriage, divorce, birth or adoption of a child, or death. If a beneficiary is not designated, beneficiary payment will generally go to the IRA plan holder's estate, which is subject to any applicable community property state law requirements.
Please note: Beneficiaries are designated at the plan level. You may maintain different beneficiaries if you have Traditional IRA and Roth IRA plans.
Yes. Your annual contribution can be divided between both types as long as you meet the eligibility requirements for each IRA type. You may not contribute more than the annual allowable maximum across all of your Traditional and Roth IRA accounts at all of your financial institutions.
For guidance on the best way to contribute, we encourage you to consult a financial advisor or tax professional at your expense. For general questions and information regarding IRA accounts, contact an IRA Specialist at 1-888-204-8966. We’re here to help.
“Simple interest” is calculated by multiplying the daily interest rate by your principal by the number of days that elapse between payments. (One month equals 30 days for simple interest fee calculation.)
Beginning on the 8th day after your CD is opened and funded and for the next 22 calendar days, we will deduct each day’s simple interest on the issue amount withdrawn from the funding date to the date of withdrawal. Thereafter, the Early Withdrawal Penalty will be calculated as described in the chart below.
In some cases, the early withdrawal penalty may reduce the principal in the CD.
